Nature Sonnet
The Take Away
Delving Deeper into an Age-Old Form of Poetry
A Unique From of Expression |
More Than Shakespere |
A sonnet addresses the topic by connecting other themes to illustrate the differences or similarities. Have learned this, I am better able to apprecate sonnets.

In addition to the well-known Shakeperian sonnet, I was exposed to the Spensirian and Italian styles. Each has a different rhyme scheme and way of demonstrating ideas.

Advocacy for the Watershed |
Beautiful Work |
The setting of my sonnet was the Elfin Forest Recreation Reserve. I focus on how visting this portion of the watershed shaped my ideas on urbanization and channelization.

My sonnet was chosen to represent my project group at exhibition. I was proud to display it and enjoyed speaking with vistiors about what whent into writing it.

”Awakened Adolecence”
Enveloped in Oak’s shade it meanders,
On which this vibrant burst of life sustains,
A soft caress that welcomes wanderers,
As they stroll through its nature-woven lanes.
The creek’s soft babble carelessly remains.
Adolescence talks back, senses spellbound
Concrete cuts magic, and shows bloodstains,
Of the oasis innocently found.
Fears crack reality as roaring sound.
All this life suffocated by cement,
The once complacent stand on threatened ground,
Dreading the day dreams’ river runs silent.
Awakened to precious magnificence,
This adolescence hasn’t complied since.
